luxury farmhouses for sale Dordogne, France

A renovated former farmhouse, guest house, outbuildings and swimming pool surrounded by 16 5 hectares of grounds and woodland to the north of Sarlat in the Périgord Noir. Situated away from a hamlet, the property, consisting of a single piece of land, stretches over a green plateau, surrounded by protective woods that follow the slope down to the valley. There is a secure electric entry gate at the end of a tarmac cul-de-sac. Under a half-hipped gable roof covered in Roman tiles, the house has two storeys with attic space, and is built of exposed yellow limestone rubble with lime pointing. The crowning of the walls, which kept the run-off away before the gutters were installed, is made of overhanging slate. On the north facade, two French windows are protected by a wrought-iron canopy. The south-facing facade is adjoined by a light-filled conservatory, leading to the flower-filled garden and a swimming pool protected from prying eyes. The main house is surrounded by outbuildings that have been renovated, forming a courtyard that opens out in all directions. The grounds, dotted with mature trees and shrubs, is divided into different areas of gardens and meadows, with a pond below.

In the Périgord vert region, surrounded by 14 hectares of pastures and woods, an equestrian property ideal for horseback riders and hosting traineeships. At the end of a tarmacked no-through road, enclosed by a secure gate, the property appears little by little. The former farmyard buildings, composed of three edifices grouped around an open courtyard, overlook a slope facing east. Topped with gabled tile roofs, the buildings’ façades are in pointed exposed stone accentuated by quoins and window and door surrounds in ashlar stone. Only the upper section of the dwelling itself is coated in plaster. All the roofing on the property was constructed or redone in 2006. The panoramic and unobstructed view makes it possible to contemplate the rolling and forested landscape as far as the eye can see. The vast enclosed pastures separated by paths extend from the base of the central terreplein in all directions towards the encompassing woods, while a fish-stocked pond is hidden behind a tall hedge of conifers. The stables located under the lean-to of the barn abut an equestrian centre bordered by a wooden fence. A few light constructions are scattered in the upper wooded section, close to the driveway decorated with flowers and ornamental shrubs.

Between Sarlat and Montignac, this charming property of about 5,000 m2 is located in a hamlet just 5 kilometers from a remarkable village in the Périgord Noir, offering schools, local shops, and a lively weekly market. By car, Sarlat is 10 minutes away and Montignac 15 minutes. The master house, owned by a magistrate, dates from the late 17th century. It stands elegantly alongside two stone barns (one of which is attached), forming a harmonious ensemble around the landscaped garden. On the ground floor, there is an entrance, a 39 m2 dining room with a fireplace and beautifully decorated door tops; next, a 37 m2 room with a fireplace needing renovation; a spacious kitchen of nearly 40 m2, and a living room of 22 m2. A beautiful stone staircase leads to the first floor, where a bright corridor leads to five bedrooms of 22, 19, 13, 17, and 33 m2 (the latter also needing renovation), and a bathroom with a toilet. A hidden door leads to the unconverted attic, offering a view of the magnificent inverted boat hull-shaped frame. Two separate entrances provide access to the property: one, pedestrian, through a gate leading to a small garden, and the second, through the garden, with a shelter for two cars and parking. A majestic lime tree provides pleasant shade on the largest terrace, ideal for relaxing during summer days. One of the barns has been converted into a 60 m2 gîte, comprising a living area with an open kitchen, a bedroom, a bathroom with toilet, and a laundry area on the ground floor, as well as a bedroom upstairs. Next to it is a workshop that can be converted into a gîte. The second barn, which is attached, is used for storage, while a vegetable garden and an orchard are located at the back. A 40 m3 underground water reserve ensures irrigation. The roofs have been recently redone, and the frames have been replaced with double glazing.
